Mason Empty Bowls is supporting George Mason's Food and Housing Insecurity Fund through a delicious meal and handmade ceramics.

George Mason Â鶹¹ú²ú’s Patriot Pantry, in cooperation with the Capital Area Food Bank, is delivering groceries to food-insecure Mason students and their families.

Led by the Office of Annual Giving, Mason Vision Day 2023, held on April 6, highlighted the challenges posed by student food insecurity—which is a growing issue at Mason and at college campuses across the nation. This year, Mason Vision Day raised $290,000 for Mason causes with nearly $90,000 dedicated to student food insecurity.

Up to one-third of students nationally are impacted by food insecurity. During the past three years, Mason has seen a 172 percent increase in student use of the Patriot Pantry.

Mason Vision Day is April 6, 2023

George Mason Â鶹¹ú²ú hosts the 10th annual 9/11 Day of Service this Friday, September 9, with a focus on food insecurity.
